  2. Why some electric car owners return to gas – the reasons aren’t surprising

    Yes, but the Postal Service owned all the batteries ( old/bad and new/good). I would not like to get a old lemon battery even if for temporary rental because the rental could die on me early during the middle of a trip.

  3. Why some electric car owners return to gas – the reasons aren’t surprising

    Very interesting that the percentage of light-duty vehicle is by people living in multi-unit dwellings (MUD) in California (20%) is similar to the percent of EV owners that discontinued EVs (mostly for charging difficulties). ----------------------------------------- INCREASING ELECTRIC...

  4. Why some electric car owners return to gas – the reasons aren’t surprising

    OK, got a chance to skim the report. The report is not going to be useful. Look at the appendixes to see breakdowns of some of the data. About 800 PHEV owners & 1,054 BEV owners but most vehicles are old BEV technology (2011 - 2016). Only 177 Teslas in the whole thing. The ratings are really...

  6. Why some electric car owners return to gas – the reasons aren’t surprising

    Agree 100% with AlexD's reply Even a L1 110V charging probably works for most kid shuttling. For sure L2 220V charging.

  7. Why some electric car owners return to gas – the reasons aren’t surprising

    The commonality of towing using car & small SUVs also varies a lot by country & area of the world. In U.S. many people will buy a pickup just to occasionally tow. In U.S., the number of households with multiple vehicles is much higher. In U.S., you have many people commuting in full-size pickups...

  8. Why some electric car owners return to gas – the reasons aren’t surprising

    L2 (220V/240V) charger at home would probably be a very good investment. As Crissa mentioned, there are a lot of J1772 chargers and most should be fairly easily used by Tesla vehicles In Dallas/Fort-Worth,TX metro area there are many public chargers 1. more J1772 DC-Fast chargers locations...

  9. Why some electric car owners return to gas – the reasons aren’t surprising

    There are many non-Tesla chargers in the Dallas/Fort-Worth,TX metro area. What power/speed level charger do you need L1, L2 or DC-Fast?

  10. Why some electric car owners return to gas – the reasons aren’t surprising

    So women probably would appreciate the features of best EV (Tesla) more than alot lot of men but women have lower ability to buy the Tesla.

  11. Why some electric car owners return to gas – the reasons aren’t surprising

    Good point and part of it could be initial purchase price differences. Long term TCO of Tesla is good but you have to have money for the higher initial purchase price. I read that there were times Chevy had huge discounts on Chevy Bolts to get rid of the few on the lots. Chevy Bolt and most...

  12. Why some electric car owners return to gas – the reasons aren’t surprising

    I agree that item two “not being male” seems very strange. In the past women favored electric cars more than men did. Clara Ford, wife of Henry Ford, kept her electric car (Detroit Electric) and she very rarely or maybe never drove Ford cars...

  13. GMC shows off Hummer EV “CrabWalk” feature in real-world conditions

    I want to be in the first wave but AGW and carbon are not my firsts. AGW and carbon are third priorities. My first priorities are 1. Energy independence and source flexibility. Not being dependent on centralized system especially foreign nation sources. Fueling at home. This is not practical...

  14. Toyota Developing Hydrogen Internal Combustion Engine

    There are a lot of ways to get periodic adrenaline rushes (one being flooring a Tesla :-). That does not mean that constant exposure is good for health. OK, as long as it is interior to the vehicle or through headphones. If everybody is making extra external noise we are back to where we...

  16. Toyota Developing Hydrogen Internal Combustion Engine

    "minute amounts of engine oil during driving" also when engine is idling. "minute amounts" !!! Minute amounts spewed every fraction of a second multiplied by 100s of thousands of vehicles in a city is no longer "minute amounts"

  17. Toyota Developing Hydrogen Internal Combustion Engine

    Marketing bullshit For over 100 years, millions maybe billions spent trying to reduce & eliminate engine sounds and vibrations. Now engine vibrations is a virtue??? --------------- Tailpipe CO2 greenhouse gases is not only thing that needs to be banned in cities. There is still old style...

  18. Tesla Runs on Faith, Exxon Runs on Discipline. Only One Is Right

    The real reason Darren Woods & Exxon wants “a seat at the negotiating table" has nothing to do with "ensure a level playing field”. The real reason is to try to weaken & slow progress to clean air. They know if they do not have the power to completely block something they do not want the second...

  19. Tesla Runs on Faith, Exxon Runs on Discipline. Only One Is Right

    Sure, maybe. If Exxon or fossil fuel industry did not pay directly it is the usual bias of news media to those groups with the most money & power. Free publicity that is another subsidy to the fossil fuel industry.
